Hi there from the tri-citys!
« on: September 21, 2013, 09:46:15 PM »
I'm April..
Went crazy this summer and consolidated half a dozen tanks into one"bathtub" in my living room! Haha

Currently housing... 135 gallon
Syno. Petricola (15 as of today's auction addition;I want more!!)
Yellow labs
Kribensis
Blue rams
Albino bushey nose. Have a regular and a long fin.
And an assortment of dithers.. Dwarf rainbows, long fin danios, American flag fish, blood fin tetras and 2 large opaline gourami.

Tried my hand with pea puffers this year, after losing 6, I decided they weren't for me.
The fully planted 20L they inhabited has been home to one lonely calico long fin bushey nose..
Until today's auction as well. Now he has the company of 6 adorable Neo. Brichardi!

Lost 2 of my trio of blue ahli..   :(
My last lonely female is now hanging out in a 29 with a trio of red whiptail catfish.

I intend on focusing mainly on keeping Yellow Labs and petricola. Eventually much of everything else will be weeded out. If anything I have strikes your fancy, let me know and maybe we can work something out! Haha

Great to be here!

My first one was given to me. I traded some larger fish for another 2 a couple years back at a LFS.
Then I got lucky and bought the next half dozen pretty cheap. A few from Preuss of all places and the rest from Fantastic Fins in Livonia!
If I keep buying them like I did at the auction yesterday, there won't be any excuse for me not to have the 2 dozen (at least) that I want to occupy my tank! :)
